ice damage

Cold weather destruction

Ice damage is harm caused by ice formation, accumulation, or impact.

In property contexts, it refers to structural damage from ice dams, frozen pipes, or heavy ice loads: The roof sustained significant ice damage over the winter.

In video games and fantasy settings, ice damage is a elemental attack type dealing cold-based harm to enemies, often contrasted with fire damage: The frost spell deals 50 ice damage per hit.
